– Facts and important things to know about the match
Liverpool will be hosting Manchester United at the Anfield Stadium for an outstanding game in the 30th round of the 2021/2022 English Premier League Competition. Liverpool are currently sitting in second place on the league table with 73 points after 31 games played so far this season.
Manchester United, on the other hand, are currently sitting in the fifth position with 54 points after 32 games played. The Red Devils will be looking forward to earning as many points as possible for them to be able to qualify for the UEFA Champions League. Also, Manchester United will be playing for an act of revenge after losing the first leg of a 5-0 humiliating defeat.
There are no clear favourites going into the match as both teams are in desperate need of the three points from this game and past meetings have seen Liverpool win six times and Manchester United win seven times, with other meetings finishing in draws.
Considering their current form, Liverpool are far better in this aspect. The Reds have not encountered a loss in their last eight games in the English Premier League.
